  • Notes: The table shows the results of six OLS regressions with planned retirement age as the dependent variable. All variables are as defined in the Appendix. Age × Incon. indicator is the interaction between age and the inconsistency indicator. Robust standard errors are displayed in parentheses. Significance: *p < 0.1, **p < 0.05, ***p < 0.01.
